Total is: squat + deadlift + bench (paused).
How often do you train per week?
How long is you're average session?





Me: 498kg (1096lbs) (185/108/205)
I train 3-4x a week.
My average session is about 90-120mins including warmup. (this is all strength stuff not cardio)

    Chris, you beast! You've got over 100kg on me!

    My total is 870lbs (394.6kg). Tested on 7/23/2012.

    Train 4-6 times per week - 4 lifting sessions, with 1 or 2 cardio/conditioning sessions thrown in ideally. Lifting is generally 45-60 minutes, and cardio around 30 minutes per session.

    Well I haven't maxed out in a very long time, but my theoretical total is 1185 lbs (538 Kg)

    I train 4 days a week for about 60 minutes a session.

    Now if we add percentage of body weight (total / BW) I get crushed by both of you :laugh: :wink:

    Last maxes i pulled my groin the week before squatting! So my deads were slightly off and i couldnt max. Son of gun!

    Anyway: Weight (at the time) 72.5kg
    bench: 97.5kg
    Squat: 135kg x 3 (for 3 sets)
    Deadlift: 165kg x2 (for 3 sets)

    I think realistically, at the end of this build up i'd like to see a 175 Dead and a 150 Squat (that will be end of October) Im hoping the cut we're doing wont complicate it since im going down to that old max weight. I've been training like a bro for 2 years. Squatting and Deadlifting for one. I do 4x a week and also run most days

    Actual tried and tested total = 397.5
    Hopeful end of phase total = 425

    Been going consistent since January for the first time since high school. 4 times a week - 60-120 minutes, depending on the day.

    Total is probably - 1185 (537.5) - 425/475/285...although I haven't tested bench or deadlift in about a month.

    Goal is to get to 1300.

    My total is: 90 + 90 + 55 = 235 (kg) or 517 lbs

    I train 3 days per week for 45 - 60 mins. Some weeks I do yoga for an hour on top of training.

    My total is exactly the same as yours, unless it's meant to be 1RM, and then it'd be slightly more.

    I train 3 - 4 times a week.

    not sure what my current totals are. DL is probably accurate. BP probably lower. Squat might be higher now

    BP - 285
    Squat - 365 (this was with a belt though)
    DL - 435

    1085 total

    i lift 2-3 times a week. squats, deadlifts, compound movements.
    run a couple times a week and have been biking more this summer.
    usually lift for about 60 minutes
    my goals are more geared towards building endurance right now so lifting has taken a back seat.

    at 175lbs. Not really a 1 rm but close enough.

    Bench 225lbs + squat 295lbs + dead 355lbs = 875lbs.

    I was asking how long per session also not just number of sessions per week. ie. total training time per week.

    540/320/500

    6-7 times a week. 4 main days around 1 hour 15 min or so. the other 2-3 are mostly sled work and accessory stuff for 30-45 min tops.

    Bench 225lbs + squat 295lbs + dead 355lbs = 875lbs.

    Heavy 2x a week for 1-1.5 hours. But includes 30 min of cardio.

    Light 1x per week w/ 30-40 min cardio.

    b-ball 1x per week and maybe jog/hike 1 x per week.

    Also trying to eat a slight deficit. Numbers have still be going up.

    Squat = 110 lbs., Deadlift = 105 lbs., Bench = 85 lbs. for a total of 300 lbs.

    squat: 135kg (297lbs)
    bench: 100kg (220lbs)
    deadlift: 210kg (462lbs)
    total: 445kg (981lbs)

    current theoretical max's would be:
    Squat 140kg
    Bench 105kg
    deadlift 220kg
    which would be 465kg (1025lbs)

    be resetting all of these in novemeber. looking for a 150 squat, 110 bench, 227 deadlift. :p

    Next year i will go past 500kg total.

    training 4 x / week.
    all heavy. 90-120 minutes.

    As of yesterday - 19/10/12

    Squat - 120kg
    Deadlift - 170kg
    Bench - 75kg

    So 365kg total.

    Weights training - 4 set days a week + 1 additional day per fortnight for a full body workout

    Average session - between 60-120 minutes including stretching and warm up/down.


    Really hoping for an explosion in gains with my bench numbers... My squat and deadlift went up pretty consistently since starting lifting but barbell bench and dumbbell press numbers have really disappointing by comparison.



    Also! Would absolutely be stoked if I could hit:
    Squat - 140kg
    Deadlift - 200kg
    Bench - 100kg

    By the end of the year. I have my doubts (especially about bench, damn chest) but I'm going for it anyway!

    according to JEFit:
    total= 844lbs

    squat=320lbs
    deadlift=320lbs
    bench=204lbs

    train 7 days per week
    1.5hr average session including warm up, post stretch and cardio.

    I'll be happy when I can 1rm 600lbs. 600lbs, 300lbs

    Total = 440 and I train 4-5 active days (full intensity strength training for 1.5 hours on average) and 1-2 active rest days (cardio only or cardio and some higher rep abs for 30-45 minutes on average).

    My word that's impressive. Would you mind posting or sending me a synopsis of your workout plan? Lifts, reps, and sets? It would be much appreciated. I'm sure others in the thread would find it useful.

    Thanks. I really enjoy training, so I don't consider it work, but that's very nice of you to say and it makes it feel like the "work" pays off.

    Well, I didn't get there by one magic plan. There was a lot of misguided energy applied, but all in all not too terrible. He's the general "how I got here" response:

    Background 5'7 swimmer in HS at around 150 with <5% BF, did some lifting and lots of basketball. College cheerleader, got up to 205 or so my 2nd year but quit lifting (other than people) because cheerleading got easy. So I have an athletic background, but I didn't train from 21-27. So I'm almost 28 when this process begins.

    10/2008 - 6/2009 Stronglifts 5x5 got 5x5 up to about 300 for squat, 225 for bench, 315 (just 5 not 5x5) on DL, and maybe 135 on OHP (not really remembering that). My goal was to get stronger and lose weight. I went from about 190 to 165 or so. Caliper tested 9% BF.

    6/2009 - 9/2009 Some stupid kettlebell version of SL 5x5 and the Vertical Jump Improvement Bible (or something) where I basically set myself back several months, but I thought I was going to get more "fit." Still around 165.

    9/2009 - 3/2010 Building up to my first PL meet, resumed SL 5x5 and got to where I needed to only squat M/F, then just once a week. Squat got up to 3x5 at 345, bench 5x5 at 265, DL 5x355, OHP maybe 145. First meet was 3/2010, weighed 188 and did 413/292/451.

    4/2010 - 9/2010 Focused on my next PL meet, I changed from 3x/week to 4 and did 5/3/1 with Westside as the assistance.
    M 5/3/1 Bench + ME Bench + horizontal pulling
    T 5/3/1 DL + DE Squat
    Th 5/3/1 OHP + DE Bench + vertical pulling
    Fr 5/3/1 Squat + ME Squat
    Despite some random acts of Crossfit in my assistance work, I managed to put up big PR's on bench and squat. My DL form had degraded and I put up a modest PR. 451/331/463 @ 190, won the USAPL VA State title.

    I continued with this training until April 2011. I got up to 295x3 on bench, 425x3 on squat, 475 DL, and 195x3 OHP. I had entered another meet in April 2011. My wife suffered a subcorionic hemorrhage on 4/4/11 and I decided not to go to the meet. This derailed my training, as my focus was on her and the baby. I still went to the gym, but the training was aimless.

    My buddy who got me into lifting tried to snap me out of it and we started the Grey Skull Linear Progression. I was up to 5,5,8 at 275 on bench, 5,5,10 at 375 on squat, 5,5,7 at 175 on OHP and 415x11 on DL. On 385 for squat the bar slipped off my back and tore part of my front delt off my clavicle. Four weeks later I got a bulging disc in my neck that caused my left arm to go numb. This was in August and with the new baby in October, training was aimless and had no plan. I showed up and tried to do what I could, but it was wasted. I did, however, get up to 215 by June of 2012. Pretty fat, though.

    Since June I've been using the Shockwave protocol by John Kiefer at DangerlouslyHardcore.com along with the Carb Backloading diet. I got down to 185 and I've recently done Partitioned Set Ramps (PSR) on:
    Squat at 315, 365, 405, 415, 425 (sets of 3, no rest except to change the weights and get a spotter for the 400+)
    Bench at 245, 265, 275, 285, 295
    DL at 365, 405, 425, 445, 455
    I don't do OHP much on this, instead the HS and it gets up to 250, but with it being a machine I don't think the weight is anywhere near as challenging, obviously I'm not OHP'ing 250.
    Push Press 245x2

    So that led to my recent meet where I put up the numbers in my previous post. I wish I had done Starting Strength for six months, then jumped to 5/3/1-WS. I think I'd be a lot stronger now. I really wish my wife hadn't had her issue and it'd be really great if I hadn't got hurt. Also, I can't consistently train squats because my left shoulder can't handle the bar and it makes my left arm completely useless for a week every time I go heavy.

    All of the programs I mentioned are available online. Feel free to ask any details on the times I was outside of the typical protocol on any given one.
